Prospect Books Jellies and Their Moulds
Book SynopsisPeter Brears has a long acquaintance with jellies in every guise. He was fed them in childhood, he turned to curating their moulds and associated artefacts while director of York and Leeds museums, he has made them for innumerable historical food shows and events.And jelly is a much bigger thing than some packet from the supermarket mixed with boiling water. In the first place, it was not factory-made gelatine that did the setting, but any number of ingenious adaptations of kitchen materials and ingredients. In the second, it was not just a simple clear, coloured solid, but an optical prism to show off and transform the foods contained within it. It was the cook’s greatest resource for introducing colour, variety and delight into the table display.The book sketches in the history of jellies, particularly in England, and discusses their place within a meal; gives several recipes based on the various setting agents (carrageen, gelatine, isinglass) and also for cereal moulds (flummery, tapioca, semolina, rice, cornflour, etc.); describes how jellies may be assembled by layering, embedding, lining and inclusion of fruit, nuts, gold, etc.; and gives an excellent illustrated account of the various forms of jelly moulds.

Reaktion Books Tea: A Global History
Book SynopsisFrom oolong to sencha to chai, tea is one of the world's most popular beverages. Perhaps that is because it is a uniquely adaptable drink, consumed in many different varieties and ways by cultures across the globe and in many different settings, from the intricate traditions of the Japanese tea ceremony to the elegant tea-rooms of Britain to iced tea drunk on the verandas of the American Deep South. In Tea food historian Helen Saberi explores this rich and fascinating history. Saberi looks at the economic and social uses of tea, such as its use as a currency during the Tang dynasty; its role in American independence at the Boston Tea Party; afternoon tea drunk by the British in India; and the 1913 creation of a tea dance or The Dansant that combined tea with tango. Saberi also explores where and how tea is grown around the world and how customs and traditions surrounding the beverage have evolved from its legendary origins to its present-day popularity. Featuring vivid images as well as recipes from around the world, Tea is a refreshing and stimulating treat.Trade Review'These are food memoirs, salacious and exotic, colorful, powdered, sweet, greasy and globe-trotting ... sharp and speedy little reads, spotted with off-kilter illustrations' - Chicago Tribune 'These little morsels of books are part of a delightful and new imprint known as the Edible series ...

Quiller Publishing Ltd Rich, Rare & Red: A Guide to Port
Book SynopsisAn essential reference guide to port, this book is recommended reading for the Wine & Spirit Education Trust and other certification programmes. It describes the unique features of the Douro Valley, the cycle of work in the vineyards, historical production techniques and more recent innovations, and the role of the wine lodges where port matures before being shipped to its worldwide markets. Ben Howkins offers a concise history of port and the port trade as they have developed over the last 300 years. He covers important changes in recent ownership of the major shippers and highlights the people driving change in the industry while protecting port's heritage.Trade ReviewBest wine books of 2015: Howkins's book has brought a few generations into the Port fold, and here it is again, updated and reading as well as ever. When the book first appeared, patamares, the bulldozed terraces that replaced dry-stone walling, were all the rage; now they're being adapted to more conservation-friendly methods. Then it was auto-vinification; now lagares are back. Port is better than ever, the region has a new confidence, and this book will both instruct and entice you.Table of ContentsForeword Preface Note on the Fourth Edition Acknowledgements 1.

Book SynopsisReveals how the food choices you make each day can affect your health, your energy, your waistline, your attitude, and how you age.Trade Review“This well-organized, accessible guide to healthful eating by two well-known medical consultants, both affiliated with the Dr. Oz Show, is sure to be widely popular with health-conscious readers.” –Library Journal“I'm so excited for this book you guys. With the new year comes this flood of resolutions and some of them are healthier lifestyles (I'm on that train with y'all🙋🏻) and this freaking book is here to help us!!” –Instagram: @thebookishsisters “The most helpful advice I found was to eat within a 12-hour period each day, which means fasting for 12 hours a day.” –Bookchickdi “This gem of a book is so great for dipping in and out of for great information.” –Instagram: @wordsandblooms “Despite the science it was accessible and amusing, with plenty of examples of foods to eat.” –Instagram: @bookmadbarlow “I enjoyed how the book provided different scenarios so you can cater the plan to your own lifestyle, such as what to eat on a first date, at a stadium, or during the holidays- places where even the healthiest eaters struggle.” –Instagram: @thelastbiteblog“…great tips on getting the most out of food, like vegetable preparation and freezing. I appreciated “The Sub Shop” segments which acknowledged not-so-healthy traditions but offered better plans…After initially skimming the book, I immediately went to Chapter 35, “What to Eat…When you Don’t Want to Lose Your Mind.” The authors do have a sense of humor, especially in this chapter.” –Eliot’s Eats“I generally trust National Geographic to get their facts and science right, so that's a big plus for this informative and fun to read book by two doctors who are associated with The Dr. Oz Show.” –Beth Fish Reads“Dr. Michael Roizen and Dr. Michael Crupain—the two doctors I always turn to for the latest scientific discoveries—explain that timing really is everything in this insightful, fun, and revolutionary book. What to Eat When shows that when you eat is just as important as what you eat—and reveals the right foods for life's toughest circumstances.” –Dr. OzThe writing is hilarious and relatable, and one of the author’s love for salmon only made me crave it more. I gave this book 5 stars because of how informative it is and because it actually helped me look inward and make conscious decisions to change some aspects of my eating habits…As a person who has suffered from chronic migraines for the past eleven years, I am actually eager to start implementing some of the tips this book provided for me. I can’t recommend this book enough! –Instagram: @giuliland“There are so many ways to eat and so many diets out there, I don’t know if it’s one size fits all and that’s what I love about this book. It offers a scientific approach to eating, written by two doctors who know their stuff.” –Literary Quicksand“What a lovely refreshing and bright health book!...I think you learn a thing or two by reading this book… It is very scientific but easy to read. It will help you make lifestyle swaps but would also appeal to those seeking help with health issues such as ‘What to eat to improve fertility’ and ‘What to eat when you want to reduce inflammation’. It’s worth a read.” –Instagram: @readingwithwine “It really does matter what you eat, not just how much. And now, two of my favorite doctors take our collective knowledge a step further by looking at the timing of when you eat your calories: your circadian rhythm dictates a lot more about when you should eat than you probably realize. Through clear-eyed writing and diligent research, Drs. Roizen and Crupain explain why The When Way might just be the best approach to eating.” –Sanjay Gupta“When we think about eating, we focus—as we should—on the quality and quantity of what we eat. It’s becoming clear that we also need to think about chronology—when we eat. Drs. Roizen and Crupain’s fun and revealing exploration of the biology of timing and eating will help you eat the way your body really wants you to." –Andrew Weil

Andrews McMeel Publishing Shroom: Mind-bendingly Good Recipes for
Book SynopsisChef and cooking teacher Becky Selengut's Shroom feeds our enduring passion for foraged and wild foods by exploring 15 types of mushrooms, including detailed how-to's on everything home cooks need to know to create 75 inventive, internationally-flavoured mushroom dishes. The button mushroom better make room on the shelf. We're seeing a growing number of supermarkets displaying types of mushrooms that are leaving shoppers scratching their heads. Home cooks are buying previously obscure species from growers and gatherers at local farmers markets and adventurous cooks are collecting all manners of edible mushrooms in the woods. People are asking the question, "Now that I have it, what do I do with it?" Home cooks and chefs alike will need a book and an educated guide to walk them through the basics of cooking everything from portobellos and morels to chanterelles and the increasingly available, maitake, oyster, and beech mushrooms.Shroom is that book and Chef Becky Selengut is that tour guide. In a voice that's informed, but friendly and down-to-earth, Selengut's Shroom is a book for anyone looking to add mushrooms to their diet, find new ways to use mushrooms as part of a diet trending towards less meat, or diversify their repertoire with mushroom-accented recipes inspired from Indian, Thai, Vietnamese and Japanese cuisines, among others. Recipes include Maitake Tikka Masala, King Trumpet and Tomato Sandwiches with Spicy Mayo, and Hedgehog Mushrooms and Cheddar Grits with Fried eggs and Tabasco Honey. Written in a humorous voice, Becky Selengut guides the home cook through 15 species-specific chapters on mushroom cookery with the same levity and expertise she brought to the topic of sustainable seafood in her IACP-nominated 2011 book Good Fish. Selengut's wife and sommelier April Pogue once again teams up to provide wine pairings for each of the 75 recipes.Trade ReviewChosen as one of the Best Cookbooks of 2014 by NPR:"I think it's fair to say that most professional cooks are generalists, as comfortable breaking down a game bird as they are layering a ratatouille. Pastry chefs excepted, it's rare for them to focus on just one tiny corner of the food pyramid. But Seattle-based chef Becky Selengut has a thing for fungi, and we should all be grateful for that.Chapter by chapter, Shroom offers up a careful selection of just 15 relatively easy-to-find varieties. The recipes are tributes to each mushroom's specific character: meaty shiitakes standing up to soy and fish sauce and glamming it up over plain rice; delicate-flavored, buttery chanterelles gently jostled among aromatics and herbs; woodsy black trumpets enhanced with smoke and wine; costly truffles married with rich meats. And because readily available dried mushrooms are in many cases even more powerful than their fresh counterparts, you can commune with your inner hobbit both in and out of season." (T. Susan Chang, NPR)"Shroom" is both a primer that should sit on every kitchen shelf and a class with a chef..." "The photography is amazing..." "...you’ll be a better person for having flipped through the pages." (Sarah Platanitis, Mass Live)
